Ethical Resources - Huge repository of ethical alternatives to mainstream stuff

by•
An open, growing list of 150+ vetted resources for ethical living — from books to browser extensions, TED talks to apps – and ethical alternatives to projects from the big five nasty tech giants, including alternatives to Chrome, Drive, Maps, Fa$ebook, and much more.

Great work! Very accurate selection and smooth user experience. Hope the list will continue to grow 👌👌
Maker
Thanks a lot Ben! 😊

In my particular case, it's an alternative from browsing G2Crowd and instead support companies that relate to my cause. Curious how this is going to scale up when more companies will join the list and whether an upvote system like PH would happen.

Pros:

Beautiful design, easy to browse and find companies that share my own ethic values.

Cons:

I'd probably leverage reddit as a community vs. self hosted.

Hey Sergiu, yes working on a review system and a few other goodies, stay tuned! Or even better sign up to our newsletter to be the first to know when we ship that, plus receiving updates regarding recent additions to the list. Thanks for your question!

I am happy to see more and more ethical projects in the tech space. We definitely need them!

Pros:

Lots of useful resources I didn't know about!

Cons:

Would love to see an option for people to leave reviews or comments to each one

Thanks for the hunt Ben! Hey everyone, we're excited to do our bit in mainstreaming ethics and common sense both in the tech space and in our lifestyles. Any feedback or ideas on how how to achieve this more effectively, please hit us up 🙌
ProtonMail and Tutanota could be added as email options.

Great compilation of open-source alternatives, I didn't know about most of them! And I'll definitely come back often. Thanks!

Glad you like it Hania!
I like the idea of this platform, it is a fun way to discover and share ethical resources on the Web. There are many categories and I enjoyed exploring all of them. I also like the small descriptions, it made me discover many resources I didn't know were ethical. The collaborative aspect of the platform makes it even cooler. What are your plans for the future?

Hi Cassandra, thanks a lot for your feedback! Working hard at the moment to develop the collaborative aspect of the platform :)
The page isn't opening up properly and the design is fully screwed. Is it just me?
Maker
Hi Amin, can you hard refresh and email me a screenshot if that's still happening? Thanks!
Must have been temporary; works fine now. Thanks
Nice start to a resource. Out of interest, what is your classification of ethical? By example, why would you not consider dropbox.com to be ethical?
This is such an awesome resource. Would love to find some way to work together on Greater Than Learning.
